STRICTLY Come Dancing’s Brendan Cole has dubbed partner Sarah Manners a “bitch” and a “ladette”.

He was furious when the pair were voted off last Saturday after performing a sloppy rendition of the Viennese waltz.

Now the professional dancer has accused Casualty actress Sarah of refusing to listen to his directions and said previous partner Natasha Kaplinsky was a dream to work with in comparison.

Kiwi Brendan said: “Sarah was a bitch, but I was also a b*****d


“Natasha let me lead on the dance floor, choose her dress, decide on her hair. That certainly didn’t happen with Sarah. I was used to working with graceful women — Sarah was a ladette.”

Brendan, who reduced Sarah to tears on TV during a row, continued: “To me on the dancefloor — the man is in charge.

“We were both two strong personalities, and the problem was we were both trying to drive the same car.”

Brendan won the last series amid speculation he had an affair with BBC news anchor Natasha. He was dumped by fiancee Camilla Dallerup, now dancing with Roger Black.

Brendan admitted: “I really regret splitting up with Camilla. But yes, there was jealousy.”

The Sun

Yeh I bet he regrets it, now he's on his own.

What a gentleman (not). Sarah was extremely tactful in her answers to the interview I saw yesterday, she was very generous in her version of events. You'd think he could keep his trap shut at least until they had finished working together. Just confirms everything I thought about him.

He's complaining because he thinks it's outrageous that she wouldn't let him choose her hairstyle??? That says it all.

This sounds like The Suns fictional take with some correct information. Dont belive the BS most tabloids print!!

lol, I think The Sun have exaggerated it, but I could tell Brendan didn't like Sarah... they've still go to dance at the final too which won't be easy.

O it was blantly obvious they didnt like each other. Guess they just have to be professional!!
